I really like sweet potatoes, especially the air-fried roasted ones. You can make these nachos in the oven or in an air fryer. But if you want a big batch of these nachos, then making them in the oven is a better choice. If you make the nachos in an air fryer, then you will get a little smoky flavor in the sweet potatoes. If you like sweet potatoes, then please check my other sweet potatoes recipes: sweet potato & lentils curry, chickpeas & sweet potato hash, and Ube Cheesecake. I really like nachos as a mid-day snack. So this time I thought to make a healthier version of it by using sweet potatoes. More cheese definitely tastes amazing but if you want to make them healthier then you can skip it or add only a little cheese.
SWEET POTATO NACHO INGREDIENTS
SWEET POTATOES: Sweet potato is the main ingredient. You can use any sweet potato in the recipe. I have used Japanese sweet potatoes as I really like their taste a lot. CHEESE: You can add any cheese. I haven’t added a lot of cheese as I wanted the nachos to be healthier. But if you like, you can add more cheese too. SPICES: For more flavorful nachos, I have added some spices with sweet potatoes. And then roasted them in the oven. BLACK BEANS: I have put some canned black beans in the recipe. You can also use some refried beans. You can try this refried beans recipe by Sonal Gupta at SimplyVegetarian777. ADD-ONS: You can also top these nachos with some jalapenos, chopped onions, cherry tomatoes, and guacamole.
